5% L-Mandelic Serum
5% L-Mandelic Serum is a gentle yet powerful mandelic acid serum that improves the look of dull texture and uneven tone. It gradually sweeps away dead skin cells to reveal clearer, brighter-looking skin with minimal irritation.
It uses the chirally correct forms of L-mandelic acid and L-lactic acid. Mandelic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid, offers even exfoliation and brightening with low irritation, while lactic acid exfoliates, brightens and hydrates. Niacinamide and sodium hyaluronate round out the formula.
The 5% strength is an approachable starting point for skin new to exfoliating acids.
